openapi: 3.0.3 info: title: Checkr Account Geos API description: The Checkr API is a RESTful interface for running compliant employment background checks. Employers, staffing firms, and platform partners create candidates, send invitations, order packages, and retrieve reports composed of individual screenings - SSN trace, county/state/national/federal criminal searches, sex offender registry, motor vehicle records, and education / employment verifications. The API also covers adverse action workflows, subscriptions and continuous checks, node/hierarchy and geo account structure, documents, Form I-9, and webhooks for event-driven report status updates. Authentication is HTTP Basic auth with your secret API key as the username and an empty password; Checkr Partner integrations use OAuth. All responses are JSON. This document models the widely used, publicly documented endpoints; it is not exhaustive of every screening type Checkr offers. version: '1.0' contact: name: Checkr url: https://checkr.com termsOfService: https://checkr.com/terms-of-service servers: - url: https://api.checkr.com/v1 description: Production - url: https://api.checkr-staging.com/v1 description: Staging security: - basicAuth: [] tags: - name: Geos description: State/locale definitions scoping pricing and compliance. paths: /geos: get: operationId: listGeos tags: - Geos summary: List geos responses: '200': description: A list of geos. content: application/json: schema: type: object properties: data: type: array items: $ref: '#/components/schemas/Geo' post: operationId: createGeo tags: - Geos summary: Create a geo requestBody: required: true content: application/json: schema: $ref: '#/components/schemas/Geo' responses: '201': description: The created geo. content: application/json: schema: $ref: '#/components/schemas/Geo' /geos/{id}: parameters: - $ref: '#/components/parameters/ResourceId' get: operationId: getGeo tags: - Geos summary: Retrieve a geo responses: '200': description: The geo. content: application/json: schema: $ref: '#/components/schemas/Geo' post: operationId: updateGeo tags: - Geos summary: Update a geo requestBody: required: true content: application/json: schema: $ref: '#/components/schemas/Geo' responses: '200': description: The updated geo. content: application/json: schema: $ref: '#/components/schemas/Geo' delete: operationId: deleteGeo tags: - Geos summary: Delete a geo responses: '200': description: The geo was deleted. components: parameters: ResourceId: name: id in: path required: true description: The unique identifier of the resource. schema: type: string schemas: Geo: type: object properties: id: type: string object: type: string example: geo name: type: string state: type: string city: type: string created_at: type: string format: date-time securitySchemes: basicAuth: type: http scheme: basic description: HTTP Basic auth with your secret API key as the username and an empty password.
